How about you read the thread where it was pointed out that ULM actually did try it first? You dumb piece of shite.
That's fine if they tried it, obviously it didn't work. So it didn't work then ULL tries it... I don't see how this helps your position...

It's working enough to make y'all mad.

The taxpayers, not just ULL fans, own ULL. We decide the name.
As a taxpayer, my opinion is that a school named "University of Louisiana" should be academically worthy of that designation. ULL isn't. Now it's not all their fault...they only get so much in appropriation and they have a mission to educate Acadiana to fullfill. But that's what the owners of the school decided the mission should be. Further, they still divert $7 million or so from the general fund/academics to the football team, so it's not like academics is their number 1 priority.
As for calling themselves Louisiana for athletics, I don't know what that would get them, but that doesn't bother me. But I also don't believe that's the limit to what they're doing.
